[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Straight As include A-. [/quote] This. And I will add Straight As (with A-) are better at some schools than others. Our's requires a 93 to get an A. My daughter has A- in her AP classes...they are borderline As around 92%. As far as I am concerned, she is a straight A student. To the person complaining her kid didn't ED into a college with A-, I doubt very much that was the reason. There are lots of other aspects of the application that would turn a student away. Uninspiring essay, mediocre teacher recommendations, no meaningful ECs, etc. I hope your kid gets into a schools he/she likes.[/quote] My kid has all those things per college advising who has confirmed that there are no weak points. The only ones getting in ED to top20 schools so far are those with top, straight As. The A minus grades do mean something when there are As to be had above them. This comes from the college advisor.
